Yesterday evening I visited Opatov one more time. For three days I’ve been walking around, meeting and trying to talk to people in public spaces, smelling the sweet smell of the lime trees, and listening to the silence when it becomes dark and the night falls.

At around 21.00 hours I used my flashlight to highlight places in public areas that inhabitants of Opatov had indicated to me as being important to them personally.
